UNSOLVED
PE2800 - NW6.5 DVD/CDRW drive cannot perform manual server installation
OpenManage Server Assistant will not install a migration mode NetWare 6.5 it is not an option.
Manual installation of Netware shows errors after HDETECT that CD volume could not be mounted
IDEATA.HAM and IDECD.CDM are both loading during install.
Server came with DVD/CDRW combo drive.
If anyone else if having problems installing Netware or the CDROM drive will not mount and has part K8957, Toshiba CDRW/DVD drive, installed in their server please call into Dell technical support for a firmware update that will resolve this problem.

I could use this as well. I just got a PE2850 with the TS-L462C/DEAH PH-0K8957-70619-57E-01BH and I get the same issue when trying to install Netware 6.0 SP5.
I have been on with Dell Support or over 30 minutes and they can not seem to find this "magic" firmware fix.
Could someone either email this firmware or give me a firmware name or reference to give the guy on the support line?
Thanks in advance.

You will need to apply the same firmware for the cdrw/dvd combo drive that you used on . Make sure you are using the Netware 6.5, sp3 overlay CD's to perform the installation.
